Kansas State football coach Chris Klieman trusted five-start tight end Linkon Cure to make the right decision, and it paid off for the Wildcats.

Sports recruiting analyst Tom Loy said it was a "massive win" for the program. "It shows that they have the recruiting chops to go toe-to-toe with the best of the best in the country," Loy said on the 247Sports National Signing Day special.

Cure, the nation’s top tight end in the class of 2025 according to 247 Sports, announced his decision on a 247 Sports livestream on Wednesday morning. K-State announced the signing, meaning Cure has already signed his letter of intent. He’ll make a public signing at 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
